If you was to assume that you had an illness which no one could prove, but you knew you had a slight chance of proving it.

And it was an illness that will kill you if you don't get it treated.

Then if your require help off of other people in order to survive, you will find your self being in a position such that you have to threaten people and trick them into giving you the things that you need when they won't willingly.

This is the case when asking nicely has failed and so has doing deals.

Because of this, you will be living a life of bullying other people (even though it is not your fault).

You will not be living the purpose of your life.

On the other hand, you could allow your self to die, it would be commiting suicide.

You would leave everyone you knew that likes you behind, waisting your life, neglecting any positive parts of your relations with others, and not considering that you may manage to treat your illness.

What is morally correct, live or die?

  1. we are animals there for i will do what is needed for survival!  i can explain my actions after words and pay back and lose what ever friendships were ruined as well!

    my not be moral but when life puts you in a survival mode then we are animals and well our gut takes over!

    if giving an illness like that over you purpose in life changes!!!


  2. Play dead

  3. If you have an illness you can't proof how do you know to make it better?  And who are you going to ask 'whatever" from, because you are trying to proof that nothing exist.  Or conversely stated: "Because I have this non proven illness, plse give me......!" (to fix, what I don't know!)

    Rethink the question.

    Peace.

  4. If I was in this man's shoes. I would try my best to get the things that I need to treat my illness, and I mean "my best". However despite of all the hard work, I still don't find any solution to the illness, then I guess I am better of dieing. If you believe in god and if you believe that what has to happen in life will happen despite of how much you try. Trying your best just makes you feel that atleast you put your heart into your own good. Destiny is written for each individual. This is just my understanding and opinion. This type of question of Philosophy should be what you feel from the bottom of your heart, not what other's ideas are. If you can express your feelings and what you can pull out from your own understanding and beliefs, your explanation will be the best from everyones.

  5. sounds like you need a joint

    cheer up emo kid:)

  6. You can fool some of the people.........obviosly to live is better, and morally correct

  7. live, and then you can explain it to them and compensate them when you're healed.

  8. Die. Why would anyone take so much trouble as to threaten and trick people just to LIVE? Living afterall is so troublesome and just adds more problems to your life. You might as well die and be happier. Besides, you wont feel sad or anything if you die. Why continue living when you have a choice to die, especially when living will not make you any happier?
